What is an equation of the line that passes through the points (-6, -4)
and (-4, 0)?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

y=2x+8

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We want to find the equation of the line that passes through the points (-6, -4) and (-4, 0).

There are 3 ways to write the equation of the line:

Slope-intercept form, which is y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y interceptPoint-slope form, which is [tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)[/tex], where m is the slope and [tex](x_1, y_1)[/tex] is a pointStandard form, which is ax+by=c, where a, b, and c are free integer coefficients, but a and b cannot be equal to zero, and a cannot be negative

Let's write the equation in slope-intercept form, which is the most common way to do it.

We'll need to start by finding the slope of the line

The formula for the slope calculated from two points is [tex]\frac{y_2- y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex], where [tex](x_1, y_1)[/tex] and [tex](x_2, y_2)[/tex] are points

Even though we are already given two points, let's label their values in order to avoid any confusion and mistakes for later:

[tex]x_1=-6\\y_1=-4\\x_2=-4\\y_2=0[/tex]

Substitute these equations into the formula to find the slope (m):

m=[tex]\frac{y_2- y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

Substitute (remember: we have NEGATIVE numbers and SUBTRACTION, so we'll end up subtracting a negative):

m=[tex]\frac{0- -4}{-4--6}[/tex]

Simplify

m=[tex]\frac{0+4}{-4+6}[/tex]

Add the numbers together

m=[tex]\frac{4}{2}[/tex]

Divide

m=2

The slope of the line is 2

We can immediately plug it into the formula for slope-intercept form  as m:

y=2x+b

Now we need to find b

As the equation passes through both (-6, -4) and (-4, 0), we can use either one of them to solve for b

Taking (-4, 0) for example:

Substitute -4 as x and 0 as y:

0=2(-4)+b

Multiply

0=-8+b

Add 8 to both sides

8=b

Substitute 8 as b into the equation

y=2x+8

Hope this helps!

Find the term of the arithmetic sequence in which a 27=-1/2 and the common difference is 2.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

arithmetic sequence means that every new term is created by adding a certain constant (here 2) to the previous term.

a27 = -1/2 = a1 + (n-1)×2 = a1 + 26×2 = a1 + 52

a1 = -52 1/2 = -105/2

an = -105/2 + (n-1)×2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

ratio of red : blue = 4 : 3 = 4x : 3x ( x is a multiplier )

8 red counters are added , so

4x + 8 : 3x = 8 : 3

Expressing the ratio in fractional form

[tex]\frac{4x+8}{8}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{3x}{3}[/tex] ( cross- multiply )

24x = 3(4x + 8) = 12x + 24 ( subtract 12x from both sides )

12x = 24 ( divide both sides by 12 )

x = 2

original number of counters = 4x + 3x = 7x = 7(2) = 14


The company made $700,000 the first quarter and $343,000 the second
quarter. Which shows the change from the first quarter to the second
quarter?

a) –357,000
B) 357,000-
C) 357,000+
D) +357,000

Hi! i need help, can someone help me please

Answers

Answer:

b

Step-by-step explanation:

The change from the first quarter to the second quarter is +357,000. Therefore, the correct answer is option D.

Given that, the money made by company in first quarter = $700,000 and in the second quarter = $343,000.

Subtraction is the process of taking away a number from another. It is a primary arithmetic operation that is denoted by a subtraction symbol (-) and is the method of calculating the difference between two numbers.

The difference in money made by company from first quarter to second is

700,000-343,000

= +357,000

Therefore, the correct answer is option D.

Try staring at it for a bit, and then realize what you are being asked: find two numbers whose difference is - at the same time, 7, and -7/6. That's impossible.

Same result you get by elimination. Multiply the first by 6 and either add or subtract - your choice the second. In either case you will get 0 = 35 or 0=49, which are obviously absurd

m<H= 80*

m<P= 80*

m<I= 33*

M<Q= 33*

M<J=67*

M<R=67*

Step-by-step explanation:

Given States that ️ HIJ = ️ PQR

<H=<P

2x=x+40

2x-x=x-x+40

x=40

<I=<Q

<J=<R

ALL TRIANGLES MEASURE 180*

Y= the measure of <R and <J

2x+33+y=180

2(40)+33+y=180

80+33+y=180

113+y=180

113-113+y=180-113

y=67

Answer:

See answer below

Step-by-step explanation:

If ΔHIJ ≅ ΔPQR ,then you know six  congruent parts:

 ∠H ≅ ∠P ; ∠I ≅ ∠Q;  ∠J ≅ ∠R    and HI ≅ PQ; HJ ≅ PQ ; IJ ≅ QR

   ∠H ≅ ∠P         ∠I ≅ ∠Q

2x = x + 40°          ∠I = 35°

x = 40°

So ∠H = 2x = 2(40) = 80°                        Δ HIJ = 180°

    ∠P = x + 40 = 40 + 40 = 80°               ∠H + ∠I  + ∠J = 180°

    ∠Q = 35°                                                  80° + 35° + ∠J = 180°

    ∠ I = 35°                                                   115° + ∠J = 180°

    ∠ J = 65°                                                          ∠J = 65°

    ∠R = 65°                                                      ∠J ≅ ∠R

ZW and ZY are supplementary. If m

Answers

Is there anymore words?

Answer:

I'm not answering but i can help you :)

Step-by-step explanation:

Supplementary angles are two angles whose measures add up to 180°.

The two angles of a linear pair, like ∠1  and  ∠2 in the figure below, are always supplementary.

But, two angles need not be adjacent to be supplementary. In the next figure, ∠3  and  ∠4 are supplementary, because their measures add to 180°.

Example 1:

Two angles are supplementary. If the measure of the angle is twice the measure of the other, find the measure of each angle.

Let the measure of one of the supplementary angles be a .

Measure of the other angle is 2 times a.

So, measure of the other angle is 2a.

If the sum of the measures of two angles is 180°, then the angles are supplementary.

So, a+2a=180°

Simplify.

3a=180°

To isolate a, divide both sides of the equation by 3.

3a3=180°3    a=60°

The measure of the second angle is,

2a=2×60°       =120°

So, the measures of the two supplementary angles are 60° and 120°.

Example 2:

Find m∠P  and  m∠Q if ∠P  and  ∠Q are supplementary, m∠P=2x+15, and m∠Q=5x−38.

The sum of the measures of two supplementary angles is 180°.

So, m∠P+m∠Q=180°

Substitute 2x+15 for m∠P and 5x−38 for m∠Q.

2x+15+5x−38=180°

Combine the like terms. We get:

7x−23=180°

Add 23 to both sides. We get:

7x=203°

Divide both sides by 7.

7x7=203°7

Simplify.

x=29°

To find m∠P, substitute 29 for x in 2x+15.

2(29)+15=58+15

Simplify.

58+15=73

So, m∠P=73°.

To find m∠Q, substitute 29 for x in 5x−38.

5(29)−38=145−38

Simplify.

145−38=107

So, m∠Q=107°.
